The auditorium was filled with laughs and bangs as everyone partied. Well, everyone minus Santana and Sebastian, who were currently on McKinley's roof, having their much awaited talk after their kiss.
"Sebastian, what is going on?" Santana asked, the two of them were seated on a random bench on the roof, staring at the stars that were above them.
"I got really overwhelmed after the whole kiss" Sebastian sighed, and Santana realised that's why he had those tears in his eyes.
"I didn't realise that Sebastian Smythe could get overwhelmed after a kiss" she teased softly, frowning when Sebastian didn't laugh, he didn't even respond to what she said.
"What I'm about to tell you won't make sense one bit, but please don't interrupt me, or question it until I'm done, okay?" Sebastian asked and she nodded. She wanted an answer to the madness.
"Well.. my real name is Bartholomew Henry Smythe-Allen" he began, he didn't even need to look at Santana to realise how confused she was.
"Alan Smythe is my uncle, not my father. My father is his brother; Henry Allen" Sebastian added.
A/N: first time I've done this in awhile but ima just write his name as Seb now cuz cba to write Sebastian over n over again
"When I was 11, my mother was murdered and my father went to prison for her murder.." Santana gasped, "and I got thrown into the foster care system.. I ended up living with the man who arrested my father, Detective Joseph West"
"He was like a father to me, fed me, made me feel loved, did everything a father should even when I would yell at him, beg to see my actual dad and when I would tell Joe he wasn't my father" Seb sniffed, wiping his eyes, "I was getting bullied really bad, and umm.. last summer my foster dad decided to fly me out to see my uncle and get away from Central for awhile. During the summer though, one of my good friends tried to commit suicide and then the guys who made him go to that dark place tried to do the same thing to me.."
Seb could feel the tears start pouring down his face, his throat had closed up whilst he was explaining his life story and he knew it was inevitable. He pulled a hand up to his mouth, trying to stifle the sobs that started to rack his body. He didn't expect for Santana to pull him in for a hug, he didn't expect for her to kiss him on the forehead and rock him as he cried. Seb trusted Santana, and she trusted him, regardless that he had run out from their kiss.
After a moment, Seb pulled away, wiping his eyes in the process. Santana watched as he took a deep breath and tried to gain control over his emotions. She watched as he tried to gain control over his thoughts.
"T-that's the story of my life.. and I know it isn't justifiable for everything that I have done but I couldn't keep it in any longer" he cried, taking deep breaths to control his breathing.
Santana had tears growing in her eyes herself, she had heard her fair share of sad life stories and tragic backgrounds but Seb's—Barry's— was downright awful. He felt like the whole world was against him, and no-one should have to deal with that.
"You're not used to anyone showing you affection, are you?" She asked, placing a hand on to his face, cupping his cheek.
He shook his head and Santana knew that's why he had run out. His self-worth was awfully low, and whenever someone showed him that they cared about him he didn't believe it, because he didn't think they actually did. He didn't love himself and he didn't know what other people saw in him.
"Let's-Let's go back down to the others" he said, standing up. She could tell he was struggling to gather himself together though.
She stood up, grabbing both of his hands and standing on the bench, he was seriously tall, and she brought their lips together, kissing him with all of the love and affection she could pull together. When he didn't pull away, she knew she had gotten through to him, well enough so he didn't need to run away from her again.
After they pulled away, Santana smiled at him, brushing some stray tears off of his cheeks.
"Not gonna run away from me again, are you?" She joked, receiving a watery smile in return.
Santana laced their fingers and started to drag him towards the door that led back into the school, all-in-all, the talk hadn't been half that bad.
Blaine and Kurt were seated with Nick and Jeff as they were talking about nonsense. The whole idea to bring the two groups together was Nick's idea, and they just had to give him credit for it.
"Thank you, Nick" Blaine said, a smile appearing on his face, "if you hadn't of recommended this, we would still be at war with Sebastian"
"He's not that bad, literally when you wake him up he doesn't even argue with you, he's like a little kid who just wants to sleep again, no fight in him" Nick explained, sticking up for Seb.
"That doesn't sound like the snarky Smythe we know at all" Kurt commented, a perplexed look on his face. Surely wouldn't waking Sebastian up be the worst? Wouldn't he want to just murder everyone in sight?
"Weird, right?" Jeff added, a smile on his face.
The door opened moments later, and both Santana and Sebastian walked in, their hands intertwined and both of their faces red and swollen from crying.
Everyone looked at them, the room deadly silent but within seconds, music had started blaring out of the speakers and soon everyone was singing and dancing.
Sebastian:
Put your hands up
There's a girl dancing dirty over there
Do you see what I see?
The way she moves I just had to stop and stare
Do you see what I see?
There's a DJ playing all our favorite songs
Do you hear what I hear?
We've been drinking so we ought to sing along
Do you hear what I hear?
Everyone turned to Sebastian, who still had his hand intertwined with Santana's. They all had the brightest smiles on their faces, they were finally coming together and being civil with each other.
Thad:
Dancing with you is so easy 'cause you're beautiful
You make it hard for me girl every time we're on the floor
I wanna kiss you 'cause i gotta know that tonight is real
The Warblers began dancing around Thad as he moved across the auditorium to Sebastian, who was leading Santana down the walkway between two lots of chairs.
Thad and Sebastian:
Do you feel what I feel?
Do you feel what I feel?
Do you feel what I feel?
The speakers killing the club
Do you feel what I feel?
Two people falling in love
Thad and Sebastian ran to the stage, jumping up and down with the music, almost everyone was in shock though of how fun the Warblers captain could be. They had never seen this side to him before.
Finn:
Now the bartender's turning on the lights
Do you see what I see?
Got my car and it's waiting outside
You should leave when I leave
When Finn joined in, Seb turned to him with a genuine smile on his face, backing out of the way so he could enjoy some of the spotlight.
Puck:
Dancing with you is so easy 'cause you're beautiful
You make it hard for me girl every time we're on the floor
I wanna kiss you 'cause I gotta know that tonight is real
Finn and Puck were in front of Rachel and Brittany, both of them grabbing the glee members and pulling them into the circle to dance with the others. Santana just watched from where she was with Mercedes as her boyfriend? Crush? Whatever they were, dance and sing his heart out.
Finn and Puck:
Do you feel what I feel?
Do you feel what I feel?
Do you feel what I feel?
The speakers killing the club
Do you feel what I feel?
Two people falling in love
Everyone was dancing, and even Mr Schue was enjoying it, he was very happy to see the two clubs finally get along.
Artie:
Can you feel the temperature rising
Can you feel the drink in your cup
Let me cast a beat and we'll ride it
Go ahead and put your hands up
Jon walked towards Artie, the two beatboxers/rappers getting acquainted with each other. Blaine and Kurt watched next to Quinn, smiling as they saw their ex-glee club finally become friendly with each other. No matter how much Kurt despised Sebastian and vice versa, they were finally getting along.
Jon:
Can you feel the temperature rising
Can you feel the drink in your cup
Let me cast a beat and we'll ride it
Go ahead and put your hands up
Sam:
Put your hands in the air baby
Put your hands up
JLS, do you feel what I feel put your hands up
Put your hands up, put your hands up
Put your hands up
Sam moved towards Quinn, grabbing her arm and pulling her up into the group. A smile graced her face as she danced with Sam and the others.
Seb, Thad, Finn, Puck and Sam:
Do you feel what I feel?
Artie:
The speakers killing the club
Seb, Thad, Finn, Puck and Sam:
Do you feel what I feel?
Artie:
Two people falling in love
Seb, Thad, Finn, Puck and Sam:
Do you feel what I feel?
Artie:

Seb, Thad, Finn, Puck and Sam:
Do you feel what I feel?
Artie:

Seb, Thad, Finn, Puck and Sam:

Puck:

Finn:
Do you feel do you feel
Thad:
Do you feel what I feel?
Jon:
Do you feel what I feel?
Sebastian:
Do you feel what I feel?
The song ended and everyone was out of breath, especially Sebastian, Finn, Puck, Thad, Sam and Jon. They were all hugging each other and it caught Sebastian by surprise when Finn went and brought him into a hug, which was then joined by Nick, Jeff, Trent, Thad, Brittany and Tina.
"Well, I'm glad that the war between us and the Warblers is officially over" Mr Schue exclaimed, smiling and patting Sebastian on the back.
"Seb, who's Iris?" Santana called, she had managed to take his phone without him noticing.
Wincing, Sebastian walked down towards her and whispered into her ear who Iris was, and everyone watched as she significantly calmed down. Maybe Iris just wasn't a threat?
"How about us girls show these boys who's really the best?" Santana said, standing up and strutting towards the stage.
Soon enough, all of the girls had taken over the stage, all of the boys, and the Warblers, were all sitting in the auditorium seats, watching the girls as they got prepared. Thad, however, was more focused on where Sebastian went. He knew he must've told Santana considering he knew Iris was from Central City and how she calmed down afterwards, he must've told her the truth.
Santana:
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Some of the Warblers were blown away by Santana's voice, they weren't shocked that it was powerful, but they were shocked at how amazing it was.
Mercedes:
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And if they give you shhhh
Then they can walk on by
No-one was surprised when Mercedes began singing, making the verse her own.
Brittany:
My feet, feet can't touch the ground
And I can't hear a sound
But you just keep on running up your mouth yeah
Brittany was busy dancing, her voice was good but everyone knew that she was an amazing dancer just by watching her. Whilst no-one would ever slate her on her singing, her dancing was impeccable.
Quinn:
Walk, walk on over there
'Cause I'm too fly to care, oh yeah
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Quinn held such a strong stance as she sang, her eyes staring into everyone's souls, it made Finn feel scared and he dated her.
Everyone:
Mama told me not to waste my life,
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
The New Directions were surprised when Rachel didn't sing, they were all surprised that she was happily singing in the background but something didn't feel right. It felt like they were saving her until the very end.
Tina:
Huh huh
I'm firing up on that runway
I know we're gonna get there someday
But we don't need no ready steady go, no
Talk, talk turns into air
And I don't even care, oh yeah
Jeff and Nick listened to Tina sing, they had been told she wasn't as confident as the others but she was still an amazing singer, and they were correct.
Santana:
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mercedes:
Mama told me not to waste my life,
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night,
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
Brittany:
I don't need no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey
I don't hear no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
You better keep on walking
I don't wanna hear your talking, boy'd
You better keep on walking
I don't wanna hear your talking, boy'd
Quinn:
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
They're just like water off my wings
Everyone:
Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
Rachel:
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
All of the Warblers were flabbergasted as she held the longest note they had ever heard. No wonder they were saving her for last, whilst she might be a generally annoying person overall, she was a good singer at the end of the day, it wasn't a surprise that they gave her all of the solos.
The girls received a standing ovation, clearly they were the better group in everyone's opinion.
When the Warblers left McKinley that night, they were all smiling, none of them could stop, especially Sebastian, who had joined them just after the girls had won.
He was busy texting Santana instead of listening to everyone else talk about how they should sing songs together more often.
Sebastian: heard u won the competition ;)
Santana: us girls can really be powerful together :)
Sebastian: just wait until Regionals we're gonna beat u guys
Santana: we'll see about that lover boy ;)
Sebastian: What is my nickname now?
Santana: speak to u tomorrow lover boy ;)
Sebastian went to sleep that night finally content with his life, finally glad that everything was finally falling into place for him.
But then he got the phone call..
